Simple Physics

I saw an interesting article (with videos) in the WSJ today about how small cars really do in crash tests against larger vehicles. Sub-compact cars like the Honda Fit, Toyota Yaris, and the Smart Car were tested against a full size sedan, in this case the Mercedes C class, Honda Accord, or Toyota Camry. The results are predictable for anyone who has taken high school physics, but were still visually amazing. This makes me wonder what happens when you put a mid sized sedan up against a full size SUV, which are ubiquitous in the city of Houston. So drive safe, or buy a bigger car!
